yep... lots of them in 19s... not so much the TE37s, but their 3 piece line such as the GT-P, GT7, GTUs, they are designed for 350Zs and G35s with massive + offsets too proving you have money...

Why do you hope it's not?

Japanese cars are very common in Australia...especially at an autosalon show - which is what I was at: http://tit.smugmug.com/gallery/2195573/1

just look in the carpark behind me: 1 x R34 GTt 1 x R32 GTSt, 1 x R33 GTSt, 1 x Supra, 1 x WRX STi, 1 x eunos 30x - common fare down here...

Check out it's wheels

we hope it's not because it's a travesty to put something like those wheels on that car.

Yah, we are in total agreeance....seeing them on the R34 is silly. It needs some nice performance tires on there.

I just wanted to give a little cheer for stretch

Here are a couple of shots of the wheels I'll be running for the...

... next week or so. Then the snows get put on and these spend the winter in the garage.

Seventeen-inch R99s in metallic anthracite. Here's a detail shot...

For a lot of people, the dark finish doesn't work with some colors.

Hope these are of some help.

The rims is here, but I have to wait for the stud conversion kit (my rims only take 12mm bolt).

The DCMM breakfast meet is on Jan 20th @ Tate.
The last one at MoS was a blaze. We went to British Pantry after that, then another MINI dinner party that evening.
It's been a long but good "MINI" event day.

Those things are gorgeous!! They look like 18s, are they? Also, they look a lot like the BBS LM wheels, only those only come in 17s.
